After that, the outgoing server – TICK – My Outgoing requires authentication, uses the same setting as for My Incoming mail server.
Incoming Server (POP3) Port: 110

Download/Access older messages via Gmail
Gmail has some specific POP3 options which offer you some additional control about what gets downloaded by Outlook (or any other mail client). To download and get every message that you have in your Gmail account, you would first need to enable POP for all mail.
Enable POP for all mail
In Gmail you can find these option in the Forwarding and POP/IMAP section;
- Firstly, click on the gear icon in the top right corner next to your name and choose Mail settings.
- Click on Forwarding and POP/IMAP.
- Enable the option: Enable POP for all mail (even mail that’s already been downloaded).
